Hey

I don't know if it's okay to ask but like all the book binding stuff do you do it yourself or is there a service you use ? I just saw the one for Charting Stars on a Stained Glass Ceiling by Mornmeril one and it's so beautiful.

Thanks for your time.

Hey! Thank you so much :') no service, i made everything by hand.

It makes my day every time I remember the fact that Sirius canonically referred to Remus as a "good boy."

Sadly, the stabbing of Julius Caesar doesn't pass the Bechdel test.

“What other secret fantasies do I have that are glaring neon signs for you?” Anakin asks.

“You’re conflicted,” Padmé says, “because on one hand you want to be a very good boy for me, but on the other you want to misbehave so I have a reason to punish you.”

He blows out a plume of smoke and taps the ash off his cigarette. “You know, I really thought you were a nerd. I thought I’d have to be like, ‘Hey, how about you tie me up sometime.’ Get you into this stuff little by little. But no, you’re diving right in like we met on a BDSM subreddit or something.”

Or: Padmé has car problems. Thankfully she knows a good mechanic.

So there is this thing that the two Villeneuve Dune movies do together that I cannot stop thinking about, where they will present something (often, a weapon) in a context the first time around where it looks a certain way (often, very sexy and cool). And then they will present it again in a way that doesn't exactly negate your reading of the original context but makes you recoil in horror from the new context.

Paul and Jessica using the Voice to escape from their Harkonnen captors? Very sexy and cool. Look at them working together, mother and son, a couple of space witch badasses.

Jessica using the Voice on Chani to force her to participate in reviving Paul after he drinks the Water of Life? Horrifying. Saying you will be part of this myth that has been created to serve political ends that have nothing to do with your liberation, and if you don't do it voluntarily to save the person you love then I will make you do it.

Chani and Paul working together to take down the ornithopter gunship using those little shoulder-fired rockets? Very sexy and cool, we love guerrilla warfare against an occupying army. (I'm not being facetious here, this sequence is extremely satisfying to watch.)

The much later image of Paul silhouetted against the blast from the missiles from his family's private nuclear arsenal blowing up the shield wall? Nightmarish.

The way the climactic battle to retake the palace at Arrakeen extends into the night so that it begins to look very very much like the initial Harkonnen attack on the same place? I'm sure this is intentional; the whole third act is about taking a giant sledgehammer to the idea that the Atreides are the better or more civilized imperialists.

Perhaps my favorite example of this is the Atreides signet ring. When Paul first puts it on in the first movie, it's a symbol of him accepting that Leto is dead. It's a melancholy moment, but it's also a sign of Paul accepting the responsibility of his birthright as the new Duke.

Early in the second movie, when he is trying to be equal to the Fremen, he takes the ring off. And you just know that when he decides to put it back on again, that will be the sign that everything's about to go to shit. And when it happens it's a very similar moment--it is Paul accepting his birthright, just a different kind. But the accompanying feeling is oh no.
